Well done, I had three of those nice motors in their day, including the frog-eyed Scorpio :-)
I would be driving one now, if they still made them. I home built a little diagnostic thingummy, to tap into the ECU for faults, just in case, but never needed it. I went all over the UK in them, the only breakdown was a CV joint towing up to Scotland, but I managed to nurse it the rest of the way there and back. I disposed of each, when the rear wheel arches began to bubble.
